Jack Andrew Tweed^[2] (born 9 June 1987) is Jade Goody's widower and was a contestant in the 2007 series of Celebrity Big Brother.

Big Brother[link]

Tweed was born in Waltham Forest, London,^[2] and has a younger brother, Lewis.^[1] He entered the Big Brother House on 5 January 2007 as a member of Goody's family. He courted controversy over allegedly referring to fellow housemate Shilpa Shetty as a "cunt"^[3] and "Paki"^[4] and suggested that she should remove objects from the toilet with her teeth. When Goody apologised to Shetty, Tweed confessed that he was very disappointed with Goody for apologising and used the abusive terms "dick" and "wanker" to refer to Shetty. Following Goody's eviction, he spent more time with former Miss Great Britain Danielle Lloyd, who was said to be flirting with him and told him "I love you" when she was drunk.^[5] In May 2007, Endemol released previously withheld material in which Jo O'Meara, Tweed and Goody constructed a limerick which Endemol claimed was based around, although it did not directly use, the word "Paki".

Legal issues[link]

On 1 September 2008, Tweed was sentenced to 18 months in prison for ABH for attacking a 16-year-old boy with a golf club in December 2006, one month before appearing on Celebrity Big Brother. He served four months of the sentence before being released on license, monitored via electronic tagging, on 27 January 2009.^[6]

On 3 March 2009, Tweed was convicted of common assault for attacking a taxi driver in May 2008.^[7] The following month, he received a 12-week prison sentence for the crime.^[8]

On 5 September 2009 Tweed was charged with rape, following an allegation by a 19-year-old woman^[9] that he and another man had raped her in his Woodford Green house the previous day. Tweed was held on remand through revocation of his existing license, without application for bail, to appear before Snaresbrook Crown Court on 21 September 2009.^[10] After the court hearing on 21 September 2009, Tweed was remanded in custody again, that time until 16 November 2009.^[11] At a further hearing at Snaresbrook on 22 December 2009 he was remanded until his trial on 12 April 2010.^[12] Both defendants were found not guilty on 26 April 2010.^[13]

In January 2011, Tweed was arrested outside a nightclub in Chigwell, Essex, run by his best friend Mark Wright, who features in the ITV2 reality show The Only Way Is Essex, on suspicion of affray^[14] after having punched a man.^[15] He admitted common assault and was sentenced at Redbridge Magistrates' Court to an 18-month supervision order, 100 hours of unpaid work and attendance on an anti-offending programme.^[15] He was ordered to pay £625 costs.^[15] His brother was also convicted of common assault.^[15]

Jeremy Kyle (born 7 July 1965)^[1] is an English radio and television presenter, best known for his British daytime television chat show on ITV, The Jeremy Kyle Show. Kyle is also the host of an American talk show of the same name which premiered on 19 September 2011.

Radio career[link]

From 1986-95, Kyle worked as a salesman for life insurance, recruitment, and radio advertising.^[2] He then became a radio presenter and after a brief stint at Orchard FM in Taunton and Leicester Sound in Leicester, he was signed by Kent's Invicta FM in 1996. In 1997, he joined BRMB in Birmingham, presenting the shows Late & Live and Jezza's Jukebox.^[3][4]

In 2000, Kyle moved to the Century FM network, taking this format with him. The show was called Jezza's Confessions. It was broadcast between 9pm and 1am. He won a Sony Award for Late & Live in 2001.^[2] On 1 July 2002, he made his first broadcast on Virgin Radio, presenting Jezza's Virgin Confessions every weekday from 8pm to midnight. In mid-2003, he broadcast the show from 9pm to 1am every weekday, and in January 2004 the show went out from 10pm to 1am, Sunday to Thursday. He left Virgin Radio in June 2004. From 5 September 2004, Kyle presented the Confessions show on London's Capital FM. The new programme aired Sunday to Thursday from 10pm to 1am with live calls on relationship issues of all kinds. Capital Confessions came to an end on 22 December 2005 to make way for The Jeremy Kyle Show, a similar show which ran from January 2006 to December 2006.

In late 2007, Kyle began a new show (The Jeremy Kyle Show), broadcasting across Gcap Media's One Network, of which Orchard FM, Invicta FM and BRMB, his previous employers, are a part. The programme differed from his previous shows in that he interviewed celebrities. Kyle also began broadcasting a new programme, on Essex FM, in November 2007.

Kyle joined Talksport on 21 September 2008 to present a lunchtime sports show every Sunday called The Jeremy Kyle Sunday Sports Show.

As a result of Talksport's Premiership coverage on a Sunday, Kyle's show was cancelled, and he left the station.^[5]

TV career[link]

In 2005 Kyle moved his format to ITV, with a programme also entitled The Jeremy Kyle Show. Here Kyle has reached his widest audience to date. His often aggressive manner with guests has been the source of both popularity and criticism. He is seemingly unafraid of reprisal from his guests, believing that speaking his mind is better than holding his peace. Guests sometimes take offence at Kyle's comments, one guest even attempting to throw a chair at him, whilst another threw an envelope at the back of his head, but he often justifies his criticism by claiming that he only wants to help them. Kyle recently claimed on air that his show was watched by 1.8 million viewers, a very high figure for a daytime chat show.

In September 2007, Judge Alan Berg described The Jeremy Kyle Show as trash which existed to "titillate bored members of the public with nothing better to do". He went on to say "It seems to me that the purpose of this show is to affect a morbid and depressing display of dysfunctional people whose lives are in turmoil" and added that it was "human bear-baiting".^[6] The judge so characterised it "after [a] husband was provoked into headbutting [his] wife's lover in front of [Kyle's] studio audience".^[7]

In February 2008, The Jeremy Kyle Show was again criticised in court after a man who found out during the recording of a show that he was not the father of his wife's baby later pointed an air rifle at her.^[8]

Other shows Kyle is involved with include Kyle's Academy, a ten-part series for ITV1 daytime which first aired on 18 June 2007.^[8] A team of experts (so-called life coaches and psychotherapists), headed by Kyle take five people and work with them over an intensive fortnight to help them on the road to a happier more fulfilled life. Kyle has also presented Half Ton Hospital, a show about morbidly obese people in the United States. In December 2009 he played himself in ITV1's comedy-drama The Fattest Man in Britain.

On 19 April 2011, Kyle began presenting a new documentary series called Military Driving School, where he visited the Defence School Of Transport in Yorkshire, following a group of new recruits as they undergo training as front line military drivers. He is the presenter of the ITV1 show High Stakes, which began on 11 October 2011. Billed as a game of "knowledge, risk, and tension," the show involves participants answering questions and stepping on the correct six squares on a grid in order to avoid trap numbers.^[9]

Writing career[link]

Kyle writes a column for Pick Me Up, a women's weekly magazine published by IPC.^[10] In his column, titled Jeremy Kyle Says..., Kyle adopts a frank style in responding to readers' problems that closely resembles the approach he takes on The Jeremy Kyle Show.

In 2009 Kyle wrote his first book, 'I'm Only Being Honest', about Britain's social problems and his views on how to solve them including recounts of his past and personal life.^[11]

Personal life[link]

Kyle was born in Reading, Berkshire.^[1] His father was an accountant and personal secretary to the Queen Mother.^[12] He attended the independent Reading Blue Coat School in Sonning, Berkshire^[2] and studied history and sociology at the University of Surrey.^[13]

He met his first wife, Kirsty Rowley, in 1988, when he was a recruitment consultant in an agency in Bristol.^[14] They became a couple within a fortnight, and were engaged within two months. They married in Almondsbury near Bristol seven months later, in July 1989. Their daughter, Harriet, was born in June 1990. The marriage ended just five months after the birth, in November 1990. His ex-wife has since claimed that Kyle had carefully concealed a destructive and expensive gambling habit from her over the course of their marriage.^[14]

He met former model Carla Germaine in 1999, while he was presenting on a BRMB radio show, and Germaine entered the controversial Two Strangers and a Wedding contest hosted by the station.^[15]

As the winner of the bride part of the contest, her prize was to marry the selected groom, Greg Cordell. Their marriage lasted only three months, after claims that Greg had an affair just days after their honeymoon, and she subsequently married Kyle in 2002.^[15][16][17] They have two daughters and a son together.

Kyle is a supporter of West Ham United.^[18] He suffers from obsessive–compulsive disorder and has stated that he "licks his mobile phone to make sure it's clean", as stated in his book "I'm Only Being Honest".^[19]

Kyle has described his opinion on "Broken Britain":

I think it starts with the breakdown of the family unit. Society should invest more in our kids. There should be community centres and youth clubs. And our benefits system – it's the greatest in the modern world. But there are loopholes and people taking advantage.^[12]

In October 2010, Kyle appeared at the Conservative Party Conference in Birmingham. He chaired "Getting Britain Back To Work" alongside George Osborne.^[20]

Jade Cerisa Lorraine Goody (5 June 1981 – 22 March 2009)^[2][3] was an English celebrity. She came into the public spotlight while appearing on the third series of the then Channel 4 reality TV programme Big Brother in 2002, an appearance which led to her own television programmes and the launch of her own products after her eviction from the show.^[4][5][6] In 2003, following her public appearance in Big Brother, Goody was voted by the public as the fourth worst Briton in the British TV station Channel 4's 100 Worst Britons as inspired by the BBC series 100 Greatest Britons.^[7]

In January 2007, she was a housemate in Celebrity Big Brother.^[8] During the show she was accused of racist bullying against Indian actress Shilpa Shetty.^[9] Following her eviction from the show, she admitted her actions had been wrong and she subsequently made many public apologies.^[8] In late 2007 and early 2008, several public polls put Goody in an unfavourable light.^[10][11]

In August 2008, she appeared on the Indian version of Big Brother, Bigg Boss,^[12] but withdrew early from the show and returned to the UK after being told she had cervical cancer.^[13] In February 2009, after the cancer metastasised, she was told that it was terminal.^[14][15] She married Jack Tweed on 22 February 2009^[16] and died, one month later, in the early hours of 22 March 2009.^[3] Sky Living have aired four tribute shows to Goody from 2009 to 2011 documenting her early life to fame and her final months. The final ever episode of Big Brother on Channel 4 featured a 15-minute tribute to Goody hailing her as the ultimate Big Brother contestant.

Career[link]

[edit] 2002–03: Big Brother 3

When she appeared on Big Brother 3, Goody became a target of ridicule in the British tabloid press^[17] for displaying a severe lack of general knowledge for a British native. Goody thought that the English city of Cambridge was in London.^[18] On being told that Cambridge is in East Anglia, she assumed that to be abroad, and referred to it as "East Angular".^[19] Her other misconceptions included that Rio de Janeiro is a person and not a city, that Portugal is part of Spain, that the St George's Cross is not the Flag of England but only the flag of London, and lack of awareness that Aberdeen is in Scotland and that the United States is an English-speaking country.^[19] She also was criticised by the tabloid press during her time in the Big Brother house for an evening during which she cavorted drunk and naked^[20] and also was criticised for "backstabbing".^[21] She avoided eviction by not being put up for the public vote until week 6, by which time the peak of the media's disliking of her had passed. By then she had become popular with a substantial proportion of the media and general public, and as a result stayed in the house until the final week; she finished fourth. She also provided what was believed to be the first instance of sexual contact in Big Brother UK history, with a drunken grope with fellow housemate PJ, though it is unclear what sexual acts, if any, took place.^[22]

2003–06: Initial fame and Sky Living series[link]

Goody fronted her own reality TV shows^[23] and appeared regularly in celebrity, trivia, and gossip-oriented women's magazines such as Heat and OK!. Goody signed up for the 2006 London Marathon.^[24] She did not finish the course, collapsing after 34 km (21 mi) of the 42.195 kilometres (26.219 mi), and was taken to the Royal London Hospital to recover overnight.^[25] Before the race, Goody described her preparations to TV chef, Gordon Ramsay. "I've been eating curry, Chinese and drinking." Afterwards, she explained: "I don't really understand miles. I didn't actually know how far it was going to be. ... I didn’t want to let everyone down."^[26] Goody raised over £550 for her chosen charity, the NSPCC.^[27]

On 2 May 2006, Goody published her autobiography titled Jade: My Autobiography^[28] and in June she launched her own fragrance, Shh ... Jade Goody.^[29] It was launched by Superdrug in the summer of 2005^[5] and became the store's third best selling fragrance behind Kylie Minogue's and Victoria Beckham's.^[5]

[edit] 2007–08: Celebrity Big Brother 5

Just before entering the house, Goody ranked number 25 in a poll by Heat for the most influential person in the world.^[2] Her lifetime earnings were cited to be between £2 million and £8 million by this point.^[5][30] On 5 January 2007 Goody, her mother Jackiey Budden, and her boyfriend Jack Tweed entered the Big Brother House for Celebrity Big Brother 2007.^[8] Upon entering the Big Brother House, Goody was informed that she and her family (later joined by Jermaine Jackson, Shilpa Shetty and Ken Russell) would stay in the main house in luxury, while the eight other remaining celebrities would become their servants and live in the house next door.^[31] Goody was not informed that she and her new family faced an eviction in which the public voted for their favourite to keep in the house. Her mother, Jackiey, was the first to be evicted, on 10 January 2007.^[32]

Goody was accused of making derogatory and racist comments both about and to her fellow housemate Shilpa Shetty, which led to the Celebrity Big Brother racism controversy.^[33] The fact that she was supporting anti-bullying charity Act Against Bullying during these events compounded her problems.^[34] A number of complaints were received by the British broadcasting regulator Ofcom about the behaviour of Jo O'Meara, Danielle Lloyd and Goody towards Shetty.^[35] By 20 January, Ofcom received a record of more than 44,500 complaints from members of the public,^[8][36] while Channel 4 received an additional 3,000 complaints.^[37]

Among Goody's comments were: "I've seen how she goes in and out of people's arseholes",^[38] as well as suggesting Shetty "makes [her] skin crawl".^[39] She also referred to Shetty as 'Shilpa Fuckawalla' and 'Shilpa Poppadom'. Goody said afterwards: "She is Indian, thinking of an Indian name and only thing I could think of was Indian food. Wasn't racial at all. It was not to offend any Indian out there."^[40] Cleo Rocos to Shetty: "I don't think there's anything racist in it." Shetty: "It is, I'm telling you."^[41] However Shetty later changed her opinion stating "I don't feel there was any racial discrimination happening from Jade's end... I think that there are a lot of insecurities from her end but it's definitely not racial," Shetty said in the show's diary room.^[42] The incident created an international outcry, gaining heavy coverage in the Indian media. Gordon Brown, then British Chancellor of the Exchequer, who was visiting India at the time, condemned the programme on the grounds that he was against anything which might damage the perception that Britain is a country of tolerance.^[43] In a statement on 17 January Channel 4 defended the programme against charges "of overt racism or racial abuse".^[44] Goody was evicted from the Big Brother house on 19 January 2007 receiving 82% of the vote when up against Shetty.^[45]

On 19 January, she was evicted from the Big Brother house. Channel 4 banned crowds gathering outside the house to greet Goody and cancelled a press conference with her.^[46] In her interview with Davina McCall immediately afterwards, she stated that she was "disgusted with [her]self" after watching a video of the alleged bullying.^[47] Her much publicised return to the Big Brother house was branded "a terrible decision" by publicist Max Clifford, who also said "it looks like she has ruined a very lucrative career".^[48]

Ultimately Channel 4 received a rebuke from Ofcom over its handling of the Celebrity Big Brother race row that resulted in more than 54,000 complaints.^[49] It emerged that there were various other, unbroadcast incidents of alleged racism.^[50] They included a late night "limerick game" between O'Meara, Lloyd, Goody and her boyfriend Jack Tweed in which the use of the word "Paki" was allegedly implied but not said.^[51] In the others, Goody speculated on whether Lloyd used "the p-word" and Goody referred to the Bollywood actress as "Shilpa Pashwa whoever you fucking are".^[50]

According to the BBC, Shilpa confided in fellow housemate Cleo Rocos that she feared the arguments between Jade, Jo, Danielle and herself were the result of her race. After being told by Cleo that this was unlikely, Shilpa retorted, "It is, I'm telling you". Shilpa did not lodge an official complaint of racist behaviour to Big Brother.^[52] However, her words compelled police to investigate whether or not to classify her treatment as 'racial hatred' under Part III of the Public Order Act 1986.

Hertfordshire Police said in a statement that it was:

investigating allegations of racist behaviour in the Big Brother house and will be conducting enquiries, including a review of the tapes. We will continue to liaise with Ofcom and with Endemol, whom we have strongly encouraged to ensure that any form of behaviour that could raise similar concerns, does not occur. We will continue to closely monitor the situation over the next few days. Hertfordshire Constabulary will not tolerate racism in any form and is taking these allegations seriously. The constabulary has experience of investigating and resolving incidents in the Big Brother house in past seasons.^[53]

Shilpa later withdrew her claims of racism, stating she did not think Jade was being racist during their argument.^[54] However, Shilpa was unaware of all the alleged insults levelled against her, often behind her back.

While on a trip to India, Jade apologised for her behaviour. She admitted that her comments to Shilpa could be seen to be racist. In a video posted on a newspaper's^[which?] website, Jade tearfully said:

I know that things that I don’t think are necessarily racist ... could be. ... And I am sincerely sorry for the pain and hurt I’ve caused to Shilpa’s family. I am wrong ... I am wrong and I know that my words and my actions were wrong and I’m not trying to justify that in any way – I am wrong, and the people who have complained are not wrong. They’re just insulted by me and I completely take that criticism.^[55]

A Channel 4 spokeswoman admitted Big Brother had intervened in the row - but only to make contestants "realise that what they have said has been misconstrued in the house". The idea, she said, was to allow the housemates "to explain themselves" to their fellow contestants.^[56] This was followed by a series of apologies by the housemates to Shilpa, and a declaration by her that she did not believe Jade was racist. Also Jade said inside the house before she left: "I know why there's no noise". When Shilpa asked "Why?", Jade replied: "I know, but I can't tell you".^[57] In an interview with the Daily Star, Jade admitted that, during her final hours in the Channel 4 house, Big Brother had revealed that her abuse of Shilpa had ruined her own "girl-next-door" image.

2008–09: Return to the public eye[link]

Goody stated in April 2008 that she would be releasing her second perfume range, Controversial.^[58]

In mid-2008, Goody appeared in the Indian version of Big Brother, Bigg Boss. She was rumoured to have been offered £100,000 to take part.^[59][60] Goody entered the house on 17 August and in the opening VT of herself she claimed the incident with Shetty was "in the past" and that she was "not proud of it". Two days into the show, Goody was told she had cervical cancer and she subsequently withdrew, immediately flying home to England. Scenes of Goody being told of her diagnosis and her emotional reaction were not broadcast in India.^[61]

In October 2008, she released a new autobiography, Jade: Catch A Falling Star.^[62][63] It is published by John Blake Publishing and covers her time in Celebrity Big Brother 2007.^[64] In Christmas 2008, she played the role of the Wicked Queen in a pantomime version of Snow White at the Theatre Royal, Lincoln,^[65] and was praised for her strength and determination in doing so. Goody had to withdraw from the production in January for health reasons.^[66] A reality television documentary, Living With Jade Goody was shown in September as a one off special, as part of the Living With . . . series on Living TV.^[67] A one off film "Jade's cancer battle" was aired on 11 December.^[68] There were plans for further shows if Goody had felt able to take part.^[69]

In October 2008, Goody opened her second beauty salon named "Homme Fatel", catering exclusively for men.^[70]

Personal life[link]

Prior to Goody's entry into the Big Brother house, she was a dental nurse.^[6] Goody lived with her sons in Upshire, a village in Essex. Her father, Andrew Robert Goody (February 1963^[71] - August 2005), who was of mixed race (born to a white English mother and a West Indian father),^[72] was a drug addict and habitual criminal, who served prison sentences including a four-year term for robbery.^[6] He and Goody's mother, Jackiey Budden (born April 1958), split up when Goody was two, and he became estranged from Goody, whilst Goody's mother brought her up in Bermondsey. Goody's father died of a drug overdose in Bournemouth, aged 42.^[73] Goody had a relationship with TV presenter and fellow reality television regular Jeff Brazier, the father of her two sons, both of whom were born in Harlow, Essex: Bobby Jack Brazier, born 6 June 2003, and Freddie Brazier, born September 2004. In 2005, Goody had a six month relationship with footballer Ryan Amoo.^[74] In March 2008, the Daily Mail reported Goody had become involved in "vicious fight with a female partygoer at an Essex nightclub before turning her rage onto a security guard".^[75]

She was subsequently in a relationship with Jack Tweed (born 1987, Waltham Forest, Greater London), who appeared alongside her on Celebrity Big Brother. In June 2007, Goody suffered a miscarriage, during the relationship.^[76] Following numerous allegations of Tweed being unfaithful the pair broke up.^[77] Goody confirmed she was dating again, and said of Tweed: "Some days, I felt more like his mum than his lover...I’ll never date a toy boy again."^[78] However, they resumed their relationship. Tweed lived with Goody and her children in Buckhurst Hill, Essex,^[79] until he was imprisoned. He and another man were convicted of assault occasioning actual bodily harm for attacking a 16-year-old boy in December^[80] 2006.^[81] He served four months of an eighteen-month sentence before being released, on 27 January 2009, on electronic monitoring and subject to a strict curfew.^[82] On 15 February 2009, Goody exchanged rings with Tweed in a private informal ceremony on the banks of the River Thames.^[83] Tweed and Goody married on 22 February at Down Hall country house near Hatfield Heath, Essex.^[84] Goody wore a £3,500 Manuel Mota dress, given to her by Harrods owner Mohamed Al Fayed.^[85] The couple signed an exclusive £700,000 deal with OK! magazine for photographs of the ceremony.^[86] Tweed was granted an exemption to his curfew for the night of 22/23 February.^[87] On 3 March 2009, Tweed was convicted of common assault for attacking a taxi driver on 5 May 2008.^[88] At Harlow Magistrates Court, on 14 April 2009, he was sentenced to 12 weeks imprisonment;^[89] he was released on 29 May 2009.^[90]

Diagnosis and publicity[link]

Goody had a number of health scares throughout the 2000s. In 2002, shortly before her Big Brother 3 appearance, she had a cervical smear test which revealed abnormal cells, a possible indicator of cancer.^[91] She was later tested for ovarian cancer in 2004 and bowel cancer in 2006, but was given the all-clear on each occasion.^[91][92] She underwent hospital tests in early August 2008 after her fourth cancer scare. She had already collapsed four times. The test results confirmed she had cervical cancer; she was told of this on 19 August 2008 while in the Indian version of Big Brother, called Bigg Boss.^[92] Her spokesperson said, "It looks like her cancer is at an early stage but we will have to wait until she gets back to Britain and sees a specialist and has more tests".^[93]

On 1 September 2008 it was reported that Goody's cancer was "advanced and life-threatening" and that she would be having an operation followed by chemotherapy.^[94] Doctors warned that her survival chance could be as low as 65%.^[95] Further tests, and a radical hysterectomy,^[96] "went well" according to her publicist, and Goody began a course of chemotherapy and radiotherapy.^[97]

In an interview with Irish broadcasting company RTÉ she admitted having started planning her funeral.^[98] Furthermore, Goody told the broadcaster that she was losing all her hair and had decided not to explain her illness to her children.^[99]

On 4 February 2009 Max Clifford, Goody's publicist, confirmed that Goody's cancer had spread to her liver, bowel and groin. Therefore, the previous estimate of a 40% chance of survival was withdrawn and she underwent treatment to prolong her life. On 7 February, Clifford reported that Goody had undergone emergency surgery in London to remove a tumour on her bowel.^[100]

On 14 February, Clifford confirmed media reports that doctors at the Royal Marsden Hospital in London^[101] had declared her cancer as terminal and that she could be dead within weeks, and at the most was unlikely to survive more than a few more months.^[102] He stated "She was informed yesterday that tragically, she's terminally ill. She was obviously devastated."^[103] Goody then began drawing up a will and making plans for the future care of her two sons.^[104]

On 5 March 2009, Goody requested to be christened from her bed at the Royal Marsden Hospital;^[105] on 7 March she and her sons were christened.^[106] Clifford confirmed that this would be Goody's last public appearance, and that she had already said her goodbyes to her family. He stated, "We're hoping and praying that Jade pulls through, but the fact of the matter is that she now only has a short time to live."^[105] He also confirmed that doctors had said the next 24 hours were crucial to assessing how long it will be before she dies, but that she had only a very short time left regardless. Her husband Jack Tweed was allowed to extend his curfew so he could spend a final night with his wife before she said her final goodbyes to her family.^[105]
